Biography

He was born on May 15th, 1989 in the Western suburbs of Illinois. His interest in martial arts began with my childhood love of Jackie Chan movies, Professional Wrestling, and martial arts influenced cartoons and super heroes. As soon as he saw my first UFC event as a teenager he decided Mixed Martial Arts was something he needed to pursue. After a few Mixed Martial Arts fights, dozens of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu tournaments nationwide, and lifelong friendships formed he could never imagine my life without martial arts. He look forward to spending the rest of my life with this infinite source of happiness.
